    Prolapse Vent

    Would this calcium be good? She's quite small probably around a pound so how much of the tablet should I give her? Like 1/2 or 1/3 daily. Thank you

    Purple Comb on Broody Hen

    Thank you for replying! It is late for a picture but I have chosen to break up her broodiness. It usually gets 40 degrees fahrenheit where I live. However, my chicken's coop is very insulated which raises the temperature to 50ish degrees. I'll let her hatch out babies next spring 🌼

    Egg bound bantam??

    Good news! She layed a slightly soft shell egg. Last night I also tried putting olive oil on her vent and it seems like it really helped her! I'll continue giving her electrolytes and extra calcium. Thank you for replying guys!

    Egg bound bantam??

I've been researching online and believe that she might've layed internally as well. Are there any treatments you'd...

    Wobbly, Weak, Shaky

    Oh it's alright, I found a new more nutritious feed that I ordered online which should come in 2 weeks. Also Morticia is doing a lot better compared to the morning. I've massaged her crop and haven't given her breakfast since her crop hasn't emptied. Regardless, thank you a lot!! Hope you have a...

    Thank you for replying! Yeah, I've been searching for a better feed but no luck. Are there any brands you'd recommend? I've given her a few messages as well.

    Wobbly, Weak, Shaky

    Her crop didn't empty out fully. Her diet consists of cracked corn, sunflower seeds, grit, grub, leftover vegetation such as tomatos and banana and a few other seeds.

    Hello everyone, I have a 1 year old bantam hen (Morticia) who was doing fine yesterday until it was time to sleep. When I went to go let everyone in their coop I noticed that Morticia wasn't acting like herself, her eyes were half closed, she would wobble whenever she walked and overall looked...
